Extra SESSION Talk.

IL looks very much as II an extra ses-
sion of Congress would be necessary.
Speaker Carlisle and other prominent
Congressman do not now see how it will
be possible to get through with the APP
preparation bills during the present ses-
sion. These bills are in very backward
condition. or course Mr.. Randall Will
claim that he is not responsible, and
senator Allison, Chairman OF the Senate
Appropriations Committee, is very posi-
tive that he ia not responsible. IL is di fiji
cult, however, to see how MIR. Randall
can get rid OF certain amount OF re-
sponsibility. His committee has charge
of the bills in the House, and they have
dragged along very slowly. lie made a
great show, before Congress met, OF going
to Washington and having some of toe
bills ready TO report TO the House soon
after the commencement OF the session,
but whatever he did in that line does not
appear to have amounted to anything. IL
an extra session becomes necessary he is
certain TO be held partly responsible for it.
There is another question in connection
with the extra session talk that is excit-
ing interest. II is whether the President
has power to appoint the Interstate Com
missioners when Congress is not in ses-
sion. He can fill vacancies, but, it is
claimed, he cannot fill newly-created
Offices. Such offices must be filed by
and with the consent OF the Senate. II
this opinion is correct, although the At.
torney General, it seems, holds that
IL isn't, the Commissioners must
be appointed and confirmed before adj
jOurnment, or an extra session OF the
next Congress will have to be called.
No doubt an extra session will be avoid
ed If possible.

The Rolling Stone.

1t is doubtful il in any other country
than this young men are so much given
to drifting from one pursuit to another.
In most cases they run the gamut of bust
ness before finally selecting life pur-
suit.
Various causes have been assigned for
this apparently aim iess drifting, but very
few of them have been satisfactory. The
true cause, perhaps, was suggested by a
young man who recently discussed the
question in letter to a contemporary.
81 am a telegraph OPERATOR" he wrote.
"employed by the Western Union Com
pany. My salary is Se5 month. If by
some turn OF fortune | should be
promoted TO the management
OF an office, would be paid from 500 to
$3.50 month. But the probabilities Of
promotion are extremely small, and, even
II | should be gwen the management of
an office, | should have to stop there.
Promotion beyond that is 80 rare that il
is not worth considering. Now l cannot
afford to spend my life working for $s5 or
even $3.50 a month. l want a fortune,
and such a salary as l have mentioned
Will never give III 10 me-"
The young man expressed dissatisfac-
ton in every line he wrote. He was not
making money rapidly enough. He
wanted a fortune, and he wanted 1t with
out delay. Evidently his idea was that
to obtain it he must seek some other bust
ness in which salaries were better and
the probabilities of promotion were
rraatar "a not uucafo IN 1aoIora hot
the same restless desire to "get into
something BETTER" as 1t is often ex-
pressed, snimates the majority of young
men. They are always just about to
grasp fortune, and yet they seldom quite
reach it. But, in the meantime, they go
''movng on" forgetting the worn but
truthful adage that "a rolling stone
gathers no moss.'
Somebody must fill the subordinate 20.
sitions, and somebody must fail to grasp
fortune. 1t is not intended to discourage
any young man from earnestly endeavor-
ing to better his condition, but he should
think long and seriously before knowing
on" 1t is not so much a question of the
size of the salary as il is OF the use to
which the salary is put. Properly ex-
pended it may not lead to fortune, but
it is almost certain to lead to
competency. 1t is unfortunate
for any young man to allow the anxiety
to get rich quickly to take possession of
him. Rather let him carefully choose s
pursuit, and, once having chosen it, fol-
low it closely, aiming to obtain compe-
tency. 1t is not at all improbable that he
will find thatin working for competency
ne will obtain a fortune.

There is not much prospect that the
Indiana Legislature will do any legisla-
tive work at it's present session. 1t is
not even probable that the Lieutenant
Governorship tangle will be disposed OF.
There is now much bad feeling among
the mem beTs owing TO the fist fight be-
tween couple Of the Senators on Thurs
day, and the investigation of that affair
is not likely to lead TO harmony.
Col. Robertson, the Republican who
claims TO be the legally elected Lieuten-
ant Governor, and hence to have the right
to preside in the Senate, certainly re-
ceived majority OF the votes cast at the
election, but it is claimed that there was
no legal vacancy, and hence that he is
not entitled to the office TO which he was
elected. The appeal TO the courts did not
settle the trouble, because it was held that
the Legislature has the power to deter
mine the right to the office.
The contest began in the courts by an
injunction suit brought by President pro
tempore of the Senate Smith, who was
elected to that position by the Democratic
Senator'S, they having a majority. An
injunction was granted against Robertson
on the ground that legal vacancy die
not exist in the Office OF Lieutenant Gov
ernor when the election was held. An
appeal was taken TO the Supreme Court,
and that body dissolved the injunction,
and In its decision held that under the
constitution the Legislature must decide
whether Robertson is entitled to the office
of Lieutenant Governor or not. The
Republicans assumed that the decision
recognized Robertson's right 10 the office,
and Robertson undertook to take possess
sion before the Legislature had voted on
his claim. OF course the Democrats re-
sisted and there was a row. The Repub-
lican Senators refuse to answer to their
names at roll call, and the Senate can do
no tusIness, and the House, being Re-
publican, will not recognize the Senate
in any way. The deadlock is complete.
IL is difficult to see how the trouble is to
be settled, as both parties are very de-
termined. If it hadn't been for the fight
over the United States Senatorshlp it is
probable that there would have been no
contest Over the Lieutenant Governor
ship. There is no doubt that the Demo-
cratic Senators were justified in refusing
TO permit Robertson, who is only claim
ant as yet, 10 take the presiding officers
chair.

Mr. Martins Mistake.


Some time ago Mr.. G. Martin was called
young man whom he had known very well.
Mr.. Martin reached the city somewhat late,
and. taking a carriage. he hurried away &.
w hen he reached the street where the dead
man had lived a funeral procession was Just
turning out of it, and thanking his stars thai
he had not reached the place too late, he told
the driver to fall into the line of carriages and
TO low. At the cemetery he got out, and
although he did not see any one he knew. he
feltl TO be his duty to talk to some one about
the deceased. 80 he approached nice looking
old gen yleman.
"He was a good fellow )" he said. sadly, with
a slight nod toward the grave.
Yes" replied the old gentleman, wIping
away tear.
II Flowed him like a brother. and many's the
tine we've had together" continued Mr..
Martin.
The old genteman looked at him indig-
nanGly.
''Oh," apologized Mr.. NJ, II don't mean
painting the town red, or anything like tina ,
but just nice little chats and long walks. don't
you KNOW"
The old mans face grew redder.
What do YOU mean, sir?'' he said angrlly.
81 mean what say, sir, He was a rafting
good fellow" and Mr.. NJ. began 10 look sur
prised. .. .stf
"Who, sirf" ..-l,,-.
"The man in the grave there, OF course"
There's no man there, sir. It's q young
lady. She's my niece, sir, and you"
But MIR. Martin didn't wait for the particu-
lars; he saw that he had struck the wrong
funeral and he made break for his CARR age
and escaped, but not soon enough to attend
the funeral OF his friend.

The Outrage Investigation.

The Senate investigation OF the al
legged political outrages in Washington
county, Tex. shows the existence OF
the same condition Of affairs in that
county that few years ago existed in
many other parts Of the South. 4 lot OF
Republicans have had the Offices and
have ussd them to I'LL their pockets. They
have conducted themselves In a way so
offensive as to bring upon Themselves the
condemnation OF all law-abiding and
order-loving people. When they found
they were shunned by the great majority
OF the white people of the county they
formed closer alliance with the negroes,
for the purpose, apparently, OF using
them TO maintain their hold upon the
Offices and TO secure their supremacy in
the management OF county affairs.
The testimony OF the Democrats and OF
leading Republicans who have been sum-
monet 10 Washington is that the men
who instigaled the investigation do not
enjoy good regulations. That fact alone
should cause the Investigating committee
10 hesitate about placing much reliance
upon their testimony. One of the chief
nltHCeSts UHIOI6 tue CON uitlet WAS tue
President of the First National Bank OF
Brennan, the county seat OF Washington
county. He is a Republican, and is re-
cognized as one in Texas. He said that
the men who complained of political out
RACES have not good regulations, and that
no decent man is interfered with in any
way In Washington county on account Of
his political opinions. This testimony
| ought TO be sufficient TO satisfy any one
that the only men who get into trouble
there on account OF politics are those who
are too bad to be tolerated with patience.
The Senate is engaged in very poor busi-
ness when it undertakes to champion the
cause of such men as these. 1t would act
far more wisely by permitting communi-
ties like that Of Washington county to
settle their political troubles themselves.
A settlement effected In that way is far
more satisfactory and lasting than any
the Senate can bring about. Senator Hoar
ought to have inquired about the reputa-
tions Of the men who got him to get up
this Texas investigation before accepting
their stories as true. If he found they
were honest men with clean regulations
it would then have been time enough to
have moved for an investigation.
